Oar Colored Plat© of Rot 



COMPRISES 



Four markedly distinct and vivid colors; and when to this we add that all 



of them have most exquisite fragrance and are continuous or monthly 



flowering, we have in this set all the best qualities to be found 



in Roses. 



No. I. The Bennett is the famozLs Rose for which $6,000 was paid for the 

 stock to the London raiser in 1883, and has perhaps achieved more popularity than 

 any Rose ever introduced, and most deservedly, for from its prolific flowering 

 qualities — being nearly always in bloom — it is equally valuable for summer flowering, 

 or for forcing for winter. It has a rich distinct odor, somewhat resembling that of 

 the Lemon Verbena. Price, 1st size, $2.00 each; 2d size, % 1 .00 each ; or, 1st size, 

 $ 1 8.00 per dozen ; 2d size, $9.00 per dozen. 



No. 2. American Beauty. This grand Rose is a seedling, found in the 

 gardens of Mr. Bancroft, the historian, at Washington, D. C, who has perhaps the 

 finest collection of Roses in the country. In American Beauty we have for the 

 first time a Rose of large size having the ever-blooming qualities of the Tea Rose with 

 the delicious odor of the Damask or Moss Rose, consequently equally valuable for 

 winter or summer flowering. Price, 1st size, $2.00 each; 2d size, $1.00 each; or, 

 1st size, $18.00 per dozen ; 2d size, $9. 00 per dozen. 



No. 3. Ball of Snow, a pure White Hybrid Tea Rose of free growth, 

 having the ever-blooming quality of the Monthly Roses, with the rich odor of the Hybrid 

 Perpctuals. Price, 1st size, $1.00 each; 2d size, 50c. each; or, 1st size, $9. 00 per 

 dozen ; 2d size, $6.00 per dozen. 



No. 4.. Sunset. This is the new Orange Yellow Tea Rose, sent out by us first 

 in 1884. It is one of the finest Tea Roses grown. We have sold over 50,000 plants 

 of it during the past two years, and it has give 1 universal satisfaction. Price, 1st size, 

 5or.; 2d size, 2-)C each; or, 1st size, $5. 00 per dozen ; 2d size, $2.$o per dozen.
